Sleepwalking - Gerry Rafferty

Out on the street and the rain is fallin', I got nowhere to go

Here in my heart I can hear you callin' maybe I should come back home

I don’t know what keeps us together, but I can’t break the chain

I don’t mind a little stormy weather, but I just can’t stand the rain

Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon

Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon

Sleep won’t come so you lie there waitin', lookin' at the silvery light

Tellin' yourself there’s nothin' new, so whatever gets you through the night

Meanwhile back in the music business the beat goes on and on

I sell my soul to the company man, when there’s nothin' else to lean upon

Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon

Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon

People come and people go, friends they disappear

There’s only one thing that I wanna know, tell me where do we go from here

Everybody’s on the make, everybody’s tryin' to get ahead

In a world like this you just exist to feed the walkin' dead

Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon

Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon

Lookin' out on a world gone crazy, waitin' for the fun to begin

The race is on yeah they’re gettin' ready, Jesus what a state we’re in

Meanwhile down in my backyard I’m sittin' doin' solitary

Now that I’ve milked the sacred cow, I just worry ‘bout the military

Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon

Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon

Get ready

Get ready
